The Sherlock Holmes Society of London is looking for Sherlockian art to grace the front of the annual Christmas Card for 2020!
Christmas Cards have been produced by the Society since 1953. In the past we commissioned artwork, utilised images from the Strand and other magazines, and highlighted landmarks associated with the stories. Now it is your turn – we would like you to continue our tradition and design a Christmas Card to be issued for Christmas 2020.
The winning entry and artist will be announced in the Summer edition of The Sherlock Holmes Journal and showcased on our website and social media. The winner will receive three years complimentary membership of the Society and a Society pen and notebook.
